$125 USDHorse and Geese Print, Gold Leaf Frame

This is a nice early print, in an antique, gold leaf frame. Framed, the piece measures 22 inches North to South, and 26 inches East to West. There is a small tear in the print at 9 o'clock, but it doesn't go all the way across, and it fits together nicely, so one really has to look to see it. The colors are vivid. The frame has been regilded, but it looks nice, and this is a nice change to get a Victorian print, cheaply. It is circa 1890.

$300 USDPortrait Miniature on Ivory of Gentleman

This is an interesting portrait miniature on ivory which I found in a little shop in Eton. It doesn't look English to me. Perhaps it is German? He is in perfect condition with no damage of any kind.

$400 USDPortrait Miniature on Ivory, French, Georgian
Antiques:Art:Portrait Miniature Of Lady:French Lady On Ivory, Original Frame
This is a portrait miniature on ivory of a lovely lady whom I suspect is French.

This piece is still in the original, beautiful brass frame with bow top, leather back, and brass easel. The miniature is signed, but some of the letters are worn, and it is very difficult to make out. If I had to guess, I would guess that the ...

$750 USDGeorgian Cork Picture/ Windsor Castle, 1800
Antiques:Art:Georgian Cork Picture/Windsor Castle
This is one of the most unique items I have ever owned, and the only one I have ever seen. It is a cork picture; ie, it is made from Cork.

The piece appears to be ...

This is a very interesting portrait miniature on ivory which is beautifully painted. I was told from the dealer from whom I purchased it in London, that this was an American gentleman.
